Am I stiffening or am I free, am I shortening in stature, or am I going up, is there a sense of heaviness, or one of lightness? The Alexander Technique helps us make the transition from our old habitual state, to the more desirable, natural quality we enjoyed as children.

“I feel taller, my breathing is easier, and also being looser helps me maintain my balance in this awful winter winds which previously threatened to blow me over. Now I feel stronger I hope to be able to carry on for a few more years.” Ella Scotchmer, 103 years

I asked my 102 year old Alexander Technique pupil why she wanted lessons as she was doing pretty well. She replied "I don't think my posture is very good and I'm feeling a bit stiff!" It's never too late to change....

#alexandertechnique enables us to empower ourselves, to re-coordinate our muscle activity, to restore our own healthy balance and natural poise, and to help make the most of ourselves, by the elimination of well outworn postural habits. Have an Introductory Lesson to find out how

Alexander Technique courses and individual lessons

In order to overcome long-standing postural habits it is important that the Alexander Technique sessions are sufficiently close together. F.M. Alexander himself felt that an intensive approach was by far the best way of benefiting from sessions in the Technique.

It is normal for most of us to need an initial course of between 15-25 sessions. For many of us, the best progress will be achieved if we can manage to have 2-3 sessions per week during the first few weeks, thereafter the frequency can be reduced to one session per week for the remainder of the course. Refresher sessions are periodically required to maintain our improvements over the long term.

Noël Kingsley runs a variety of Courses in the Alexander Technique to suit our individual needs and these options can be discussed during the Introductory Session. He gives Alexander Technique lessons in London and his home town of Beaminster in Dorset.

Introductory Sessions

Having an Introductory Session is by far the best means of finding out how the Alexander Technique may benefit you. It is a one-off session and there is no requirement for a long term commitment. An Introductory Session is slightly longer than normal as there is more to discuss and you also get a full Alexander session, involving expert hands-on guidance so you get the experience of releasing longstanding tensions, improved balance and a sense of light expansiveness that comes from improving co-ordination. It is normally the same fee as regular sessions.
